RACE COMMENT
Last season’s standout two-year-old SOLO SAFARI (7) resumes to kick off his three-year-old campaign. It’s never easy for a young horse taking on older company, particularly from a wide draw over the short distance, and noting his trials have only been fair, so it will be interesting to see how he performs for the new stable. CEE TEE CHELSEA (2) has been costly for punters recently but again draws to sit on speed and should be in the finish. REPETITIVE (5) and KEEPERS IDEAL (6) are both likely to use their gate speed early and settle prominently over the short trip. The Conor Crook-trained pair KNOCK OUT (8) and ONEHANDONEBOUNCE (3) both performed well last start and will be hoping for genuine tempo to bring them into the race late.Selections CEE TEE CHELSEA (2), SOLO SAFARI (7), ONEHANDONEBOUNCE (3), KNOCK OUT (8)
